How Much of an Iceberg Is Underwater?

Only about 10% of an iceberg is visible above the surface, while 90% remains hidden below.

Why So Much Is Hidden

Ice is less dense than seawater, causing most of its mass to remain submerged.

Why It Matters

This hidden mass makes icebergs much larger and more powerful than they appear.
